WaveDude Next 0.1.0 is the first release. WaveDude Next is a 2D wave simulator for optics on Windows; the README describes it, and the manual is in the program under Help > Manual (F1).

Download

  • WaveDudeNext-0.1.0.exe (6 MB) needs the .NET 10 Desktop Runtime. If it is missing, Windows offers the download on the first start.
  • WaveDudeNext-0.1.0-bundled.exe (146 MB) contains the runtime; nothing has to be installed.

Both run on 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 from any folder. GPU acceleration uses the OpenCL driver that is part of the usual graphics drivers; without one, the simulation runs on the CPU. MP4 export uses Windows Media Foundation, which Windows N editions get with the Media Feature Pack.

Problems

Report them on the issue tracker with the system information from Help > About (the Copy button) and the log file WaveDudeNext.WPF.log from the program's folder.
